Who Is Right for the Program
Audit Committees in a New Era of Governance is intended primarily for audit committee chairs and other committee members from boards of large established companies. Given the nature of corporate governance, however, it is equally beneficial for chief financial officers who work closely with the board's audit committee. To foster teamwork and maximize the learning impact, HBS encourages attendance by several representatives from a given organization.

"I currently chair the audit committees at Raytheon Company and Courier Corporation, and I am a member of State Street Corporation's audit committee. Serving on these three committees, I found the course to be very informative and worthwhile."
